Dim T is a great place. The value for money is excellent. u won't pay more than 10 for a main course and the food is really of a high quality. The only thing that really annoyed me was that the waiting... More

The Yard Bar, Soho (Bar)“I go to the yard most nights after work, its got such a relaxed atmosphere and attentive staff. i have got to know the manager there and he is very funny and charming. and from what i have seen he keeps his staff and customers very happy.
i can see the managers reasons, as asking him just for red wine is a bit vague and if he is busy running the two floors he would be a little rushed, but thats my opinion.”

Whites Gentlemen's Club, City of London (Bar / Club)“I often go to gentlemen's clubs to see how people do things different but i got to tell you this club has got it spot on, it is really relaxed for a lapdancing club, the girls dont drive you mad, the actual club is beautiful chandeliers and cotton covered walls make it very sumptuous but the thing that separates it from the other clubs is its VIP rooms, especially the attention to detail, i asked the girl i was with about the vip areas and she gave me a guided tour. it starts with the office room, supposedly copied from an office in parliament in the 60s it has a leather topped desk directors chair a chesterfield and a globe bar, do you remember them? this was the room for me without a doubt so i did'nt bother seeing the other rooms, however the other rooms available were the dungeon, or the school room, i never saw these rooms so can't comment on them but all i can say is oh my god, i booked the room for an hour and had dom perignon served from the globe bar by my lovely host, it is without doubt the best gentlemen's club in london, not just the VIP part all of it, the relaxed atmosphere, and friendly staff, i cannot recommend this club enough if you are in the city with a few quid then go to whites, you will love it. sweeting”

The Dogstar, Brixton (Bar)“Love the Dogstar! We always go here. It's been our local pub for the past year and had too many good times. It's open late every night so if we're out in the area then we always drop in. The bar staff are really friendly, the DJs play the best music and they do pizza and I love pizza!!! :)”

The Cardinal, Kingston (Bar)“I can only guess it's because the other reviews of this pub are so old that the customers weren't happy. I've started using this pub regularly and find it friendly and welcoming. The decor is cosy and contemporary and the food is excellent with a good range of choices available. In fact I am so taken with the Cardinal I'm going to be having my wedding there!”

Tartine, Kensington (Bar / Restaurant)“after tonight bad experience I will never ever go there, who needs rude Manager, which they need management course first before taking over the job, Im tax payer citizen and I dont follow these peaple who comes to this country, and abuse the law, which for the first time I learn, that they can not serve you if they wish,and they can ask you to leave if they have power, which she was in charged and abused her power. it is very sad that our evening was spoiled , therefore I dont recomend it to anyone to go there,and I will ask my fiend not to go there anymore until the Manager is changed.The customer is always right in this case there was no big dea except closing one of the door which was draft coming in, that was all.”

The Iron Duke, Victoria (Bar)“A pity I couldn't find an email address for them this evening.
Usually there is swift, courteous service from the (predominantly female) staff, although the drinks are overpriced.
However, I failed to get served tonight because I was 'too small'. Disgusting in this day and age. Won't be going there again.”

The Cellar, City of London (Bar)“The Cellar was almost empty for my visit and no surprise given the poor value of the food. £6 or £7 for a hunk of bread with a hint of chicken filling and £3.50 for a bowl of greasy skinny oven chips. Not a patch on how I remember it from a year or so back.”

Chimichanga, Muswell Hill & Hornsey (Restaurant)“An early evening visit to Chimichanga in Peterborough proved a disappointment. The enchiladas looked great when they arrived (very quickly) but were hot on the outside and cold inside, microwave sprang to mind. The sizzling tiger prawn fajitas were much better and the piña coladas proved the saving grace. The service was adequate at best and the atmosphere cold.”

Imbibe, Borough & Southwark (Bar)“We had a great party at Imbibe. The staff were very helpful in all the organisation and on the day everything went smoothly. It is a great venue enabling us to have an afternoon BBQ in the lovely garden and we created a kids corner. For the evening we had a band followed by a DJ with lots of dancing. We had lots of great comments from our guests on the venue, food and the party. We would definitely use Imbibe again for any future parties as it was such a success. Great venue in having the outside space and lovely bar with room for a band in a central location.”

The Book Club, Shoreditch (Bar)“Just plain awesome. What a fantastic place to go, any time of the day. I've been here for breakfast and stayed working on my laptop for hours. Great juices and food during the day. Plus awesome tunage playing all day too. Then as the evening draws in, the 'cool' factor goes through the roof when Book Club is inundated with lots of really friendly, interesting people. When the downstairs gets moving it's a total riot. But not a wasted riot, a jovial, genial, pleasant riot. And lads, it's FULL to the brim with lots of beautiful ladies.”

Il Cantuccio di Pulcinella, Clapham (Restaurant)“My pasta was so salty, I was crunching undissolved granules. I glugged down so much water, feeling embarassed about it & making a fuss with my partner there after our lovely day out. Her pizza looked great whilst it was openly being made near the clay oven but she told me it was nothing special. I eventually asked the waitress to take my plate 10 minutes after I'd stopped eating. She asked the usual "was all ok" and I apologised and told her it was so salty I had to stop. I could see her speaking to the chef and looking over at me. My pallate had been wiped out by the salt and I genuinley couldn't eat another thing. Just like when we were sat there waiting almost having to Mexican wave to order, they steadfastly avoided us on a 30% full Saturday night until I caught the waitress' attention as she scuttled past out table. No apologies from them, no discount or nicety, nothing. As we snaked through the restaurant, they didn't say anything to us, not even a goodbye. They just stared. We felt strongl”

Janet's Bar, Kensington (Bar)“As stated above, most definitely the best bar in London. My friends and I came across this amazing little gem of a place by accident and have been going back every week since. I'm not alone in this either- the number of regulars, all of whom Janet herself knows by name and face, just goes to show what a fantastic spot this bar is.
The cocktail list is well worth a look- it's extensive, varied and each delicious creation is definitely worth the price tag. And the prices are good when one takes into consideration where the bar is situated- at the hub of South Kensington. There's also a great selection of wines and spirits. To the satisfaction of those gathering at Janet's Bar before going to Boujis (favourite nightspot of Prince William etc., which is just across the road) on weeknights, Janet is now serving £3 shots of a yummy vodka and liquor mixture. We also get given free popcorn, PB and J sandwiches, nuts and hot dogs!
The interior of the bar is one of my favourite things about it. The walls are covered corner to corner with photographs taken over the years. Souvenirs of parties gone by such as party hats, streamers, banners, posters and ornaments lining the shelves add to the eclectic, unpretentious all-American vibe, and the owner Janet embodies this entirely.
The bar is open until 2.30am, long after all the others in the area lock up. You also never have to wait around to be served, and your drinks come promptly. There is live music every night- three different singers play to a relaxed yet well-dressed crowd. I always meet new people every time I go.
If you haven't yet been to Janet's, you should know that it's definitely worth a visit (or twelve). Even if you come during the day, you can get a coffee and muffin for £2.50. The staff are friendly and efficient, the drinks are good, and the atmosphere is constantly vibrant.”
